Unexpected Love

Chapter 12

~ Regulus Black ~

There was only one day left before everyone was going to return, so James and I decided to take the time to go to Hogsmeade. He showed me the secret passage that led to honeydukes. Safe to say I almost passed out on the sight of honeydukes. We spent about three hours in Hogsmeade already, but we were standing in front of a shop for magical stuff.

"Wait okay, here," James muttered, he tried to fix my hair after catching me looking at a girl. The girl was pretty but I wasn't attracted to her nor did I like her. I was looking at the book she was reading. "Now, go over there and talk to her,".

"Fine," I groaned, I turned around and slowly made my way over to the girl with dirty blonde hair that was curly, and black rimmed glasses. I cleared my throat which caused her to look up in curiosity.

"Oh, hello," she said, her voice was smooth, and quite amazing to hear.

"H-hi," I stammered.

"Can I help you?" She asked.

"Um, yeah, I was wondering what book are reading?" I wondered.

"Oh, I'm reading Tales Of The Grim Brothers," the girl said.

"Oh, I read that before, it's such a good book," I happily said.

"Really? I love this book," the girl squealed with excitement.

"Yeah, the book was amazingly written," I complimented.

"It really is. I uh, I'm Farrah Kintel," Farrah introduced.

"I'm Regulus Black," I added.

"Black? As in the noble house of Black?" Farrah asked,

"Uh, yep," I muttered.

"Oh, uh, t-that's cool," Farrah awkwardly said.

"Not really, it isn't fun to have everybody cower when they hear your last name, that sucks actually," I shrugged.

"Oh, sorry," Farrah apologized.

"Nah, don't worry about, yeah, that's uh all I wanted to ask you, um, see you around," I awkwardly said and quickly walked away before I said anything else.

"So, how did it go!?" James asked curiously and happily.

"It went good until I told her my name," I jolted my shoulders.

"Wha- why!" James yelled.

"The noble house of Black isn't a nice name to hear," I informed like he was a kid.

"Ugh, well, her loss," James shrugged. I shook my head with a smile on my face.

"Sure," I said.

"Come on, there's a book store over there," James shouted, he grabbed my wrist and dragged me to the bookstore.

"I-James since when are you excited about books?" I skeptically asked.

"Since I knew that you liked them," James told as if it was a normal thing to say.

"Aw Jamie," I teased, James groaned signalling that he didn't like the name, "you pay attention!".
